I can't really relate to this song because I have wonderful parents. Either way, I love this song. I've listened to it so many times it should be considered rape.
@BrBlevins13 Music is left open to the interpretation of the listeners. I know your beliefs probably prohibit free thinking, that is okay. Though, this is music, so we may read into it what we want.
Have u lied? Have u stolen? Jesus said if you look at a women with lust u have committed adultery with her in your heart.
If God judge’s u by the Ten Commandments will u be innocent or guilty? Heaven or Hell? The Bible teaches despise the value of your eye compared to the value of your soul. would u sell your eye for a million dollars? And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. needgod.com
I've known this song since 2005(during my high school). i liked the song before but i cant relate with it. then after my father passed away, just 53 years old, I started to fool myself. i regret that i didnt have a chance to be close with him, actually with my family. but now, i have to move on coz i know that i cant give up of life just like my father did. I'll make the best of it with my mother and siblings. I Love you DAD!!!
My father died of a heart attack in 2010. I found out in 2011 on a damn website. Being a Vietnam veteran caused him to take hold of drugs and abuse them to a end that only could have weakened his body to the extent it would finally give out over time. My mother, God bless her soul did drugs for so long. And quit. Now free from the opression of drugs she has taught me the ways of life in a clearer way. But she is now with a man who is still married with his ex wife. This song actually meant alot.
You interpret this song much differently than I do. To me, it's always been a song about living with parents who shove religion down your throat. Not wanting to live like your mother, who lives in fear of a totalitarian sky dictator who demands that she lives by rules that make her life less enjoyable, and not wanting to be like a father, who - despite his good nature and good intentions - has given up on trying to find happiness and just takes life as it comes.
reminds me alot of my parents but my mother is strong willed my dad not so much e was a strong man but let a stupid hairon addiction take over his life and ended it as well.....he gave up way befour he died he gave up the first time he stuck the needle in his veins.....
@everyone thanks. It's been a hard road, but my adoptive family hasn't been that great either. They are abusive... But they are alll I have. And on a more positive note, I found my biological parents(deceased) and through that, I found my 19 year old little sister. She's been a friend of mine for quite a while... :) and just to clear up confusion, i'm female and i'm currently expecting my 2nd child!!
Man I have so much hard decisions I just got kicked out of my math class that I worked so hard to get in my teachers treat me like crap and im kind of a loner my life style consists of sitting at home doing nothing ,and working at school I just about lived and gave I guess all that work was for nothing
it may not be about loving parents, but it is thanking his parents for the inspiration to be who is he today. whether it was thru loving ways or a bad enough upbringing to motivate him to be better than they were to him
Wow. This was amazing. I'm the daughter of a cancer survivor and my mother had a horrible childhood growing up. This song just amazes me. Very rarely will a song bring tears to my eyes. This did.
This song is one of my personal favs. Especially the line "I don't want to give up, before I die". that line's my favorite cuz my mom and dad basically saved me. They found me in a trash can, and saved my life. I never knew my real parents, or why they just abandoned me in a trash can. But I honestly don't care. My parents are the ones who raised me, and are now at peace wherever they are. My mother died when I was 15, and my dad just passed on May 3rd this year. I miss them with all my heart.
@KitannaRaven1323 wow, from the heart, that sucks that your real parents left you, but well those two saved you and Im guessing loved you like a true son, and thats all you should need, you shouldnt care about who your real paents, sure they are assholes and probably got what was coming to them
story of most of our lives, but we all got through it, its not what happened to most of us back then, its what makes us who we are now. we are all strong and have a strong will, for those who got through the hard times, i salute you, and for those still going through it, keep you head up and continue to fight through, it will make you stronger than you are now in the future. be strong...
This is such a beautiful song..... it reminds me of my parents... they passed away on the same day before I was gonna take off to college on a full-ride to SFSU. I play classical guitar and the beat to this song is so beautiful but I also love punk music. I had to give up on college to take care of my younger sister though :( it's been hard but atleast I haven't gave up!! And I never will
Its ok to be a christian parent, and take your kids to church, but you cant FORCE them to believe it. give them the choice. dont shove it down there throats
I never heard this song before. I'm 39, but I love this. This is why I feel like I didn't fall on my face and overprotect my daughter when her two younger siblings passed away last year. My original instinct was to be overprotective, but I let it go and let her be a child, as much as she could be considering everything. Hopefully later, she would not relate to this song in relationship to me because I do do my best to let her be free despite everything. Peace and love!
This song got me through middle school. I was always the "black sheep" of the family, my father wasn't really in my life. My mom played both parts in this story, she always worked to provide for us and well never adjusted to this society, plus she's a die-hard catholic so the way I chose to live upset her very much. And although I Love my mom with all my part, I will never put restraints on my kids as the song says(:
Eveyones life turns out to be just like this once in their lifetime some of us is harder than others and thanks to smile empty smile he and his band have shown us the way thank you Smile Empty Soul!!!!
my dad shot my my mother when i was only a baby her gave up and my mom lived scared because of his abuse sad really been depressed since i can remember
I am gonna be a mother and this will be my first kid and my mother is sitting there telling me shit and saying I am gonan be a bad mother when in reality she was a fucked up mom and so is my dad. I am only 18 and my bf thought it would be nice to have a kid even though I am not ready but were both managing and I promised my self that I would never hold my kids back if they wanna try anything
People have all different takes on what songs are about. There is absolutely no reason to argue about it. That's the great thing about music. You can listen to it and take it with any meaning you want. I am sick of people on these. If you were a true fan, you would want other people to enjoy the same music. Even if it's in a completely different way. Now cheer up, listen to the song... And probably get depressed again. Lol.
this song dosnt have anything to do with religion his mom died of cancer and his dad just works his days away smile empty soul didnt even write this song this song was writen by a short dorky kid who didnt have to many chances in life i know this for a 100% fact cause i was there
My Dad works two jobs. The second is because of health insurance because my Mom is sick, and she can't get it. So ALL my life that's what I've known. My Mom acts like if you don't dress or act a certain way there is something wrong. A couple of weeks ago we found out my Mom was cheating on Dad. ALL OF THOSE YEARS she judged me and then she does that.
i sang this at my school choir concert, i dedicated it to my mom and dad who are no longer in my life. my dad abandoned me and so did my mom....after the song i broke down backstage
You were blessed to have caring parents. Some kids have parents who encourage them to go outside and play in the middle of uncoming traffic. Or rather they DON'T. The only chains are yours. The ones you imagine. You have freedom but no LOVING parent can just stand and watch their child put their finger in the electric socket.
This song is exactly how things are. My mom shields me from the world because shes afraid i'll meet the wrong influences and my dad works hard going around trying to be superman. Yet, we couldnt be further apart. Needing some friends who are going through this too..? thumbs this up and message me
Songs like this are inspiring. It's even more amazing to look at these comments and know that I'm not the only one that is motivated by this song and band. Story of our lives.
@MrThecommunistcomrad Just was wondering if the words you wrote are from a song or from your thoughts? If it was about "this" song , I did not pick up on any religous stuff. I really like this song....and I was reading the comments. If you don't mind....plz. let me know what your comment means. Thank you....Oh, and btw....I do agree with your comment in the fact that no one should shove any crap down peoples throats, not just kids...right ?
PLEASE shut the FUCK up you bunch of whining pussies. your parents are being parents you dumbfucks, they control you for 18 years! you guys have the rest of your life to be bitching little unproductive fags. nah im jk i dont really give a shit :)
all you guys are talkin about how your parents are controlling and dont let you get away with shit, ha! parents like that sound pretty good, try probation pussies
I don't see, in the least bit, how this is anti religion. Religion isn't about forcing your children to be a specific way, or anything like that. It's about believing God, accepting Jesus, and trying to help others do the same. It's about putting your trust into fate. Religious people don't have to be controlling.
This is an awesome song and band....it is true to real life situations that I have faced....I hope my daughter lives her life as she chooses and breaks the chains of her father..
Even though lifes hard and your parents piss you the fuck off but they're still your parents and i love mine but yes i do wanna move out but i'll always love them no matter how fucked up a fight can get :)
i read some of the comments you guys left and came to the conclusion that you all define what it means to be a true rebel the new meaning of rebel is to stand up for what you think and do what you think is right some people see it as a racist symbol but it just doesn't mean that anymore my black friend flies the rebel high and proud next to the american flag thank the lord i have parents don't try to control me
@MyGta123 These whining pussies aren't rebels....Rebels actually do stuff about real, meaningful issues. Not bitch and moan on the internet about how mommy and daddy don't understand.
sometimes i feel like i'm getting controlled by my parents. i accept being a christian and i'm fine with going to mass every week but... this is still my life. they don't accept my actions as i do for their's. they won't let me be me
no offence to u bud but i think hes talking about giving up religion because his mom is always in fear of god so i mean good message nd im not knockin u im just sayin might be a bad choice on song to put something about god after this song.....just sayin
yea, you right but its fucker up when parents tells you that you cant to this or be what you want because they dont want you to be..they should keep kids save but not control them
@itiswhatitis4now well firstly thats not true not all of them have good intensions and half of them dont give a fuck anyways, and in the end they have no control they just want to be higher than someone else so they can think mighty of themselves. ohh and P.S tell that to all the kids who've been abused and abandoned by their parents ohh and dont forget incest motherfucker
Please check out my nephew's a cappella cover of this. He's only 16 and I think he did a great job! See what you think! Look up "Rian Niemi" here on YouTube!!!

I liked it. I like how the song in general is not complex at all, but neither is it a completely sad song. My parents hardly ever listen to these genres of music I greatly appreciate, so I highly doubt they'd take this song as seriously as we seem to. But my mom would leak from her eyes worse than a faucet if she heard this, mostly because it's emoting a strong subject or several - failure, lack of parental acceptance and respect, etc.
Yea, this does feel like my family story. My dad works nearly every day, and literally until he breaks. My mom always tells me to dress 'normal' so I won't get into fights. Both of them told me to be a christian, while I choose not to. Fights all over the place. Thank goth I'm moving out.
And the ending of this song: When I have kids, I won't put any chains on their wrists I want.. Cause Kids should be what they want to be. If they want something strange, I just want to hear their motivation.
@ReApErZaRaTe thanks :) and yes, it's from the heart. Kids are so innocent.. If kids act bad, it's not their fault, but their parents or the environment.. Spread that.. ;)
@kipjah i agree with u my family is always telling me to be someone that im not and lets face it im a person that only wears black but im always judged
@kipjah i agree with u my family is always telling me to be someone that im not and lets face it im a person that only wears black but im always judged my kids r gonna be free to be them
damn. i have so much drama bout these stupid stereotypes in school already. whenever i scroll down at the comments, i DONT WANNA SEE anything relating to "emos" or anything proclaiming to that matter. emo's not even a stereotype .___. dont label this for me. just tell me how this song is . v___v
I already lost my brother at war in Iraq and this song hits right in the heart, I'm here at the South Korean border right now due to threats of the north.
This is just.. so true. I feel like this song really fits so many people's lives. Many people have parents who are afraid of life, and death, and work themselves too much. Who gave up long before they ever even tried. And I think this really shows how people are feeling about their parents.
Thank you so much for uploading this. I heard this song like four or five years ago and I never knew who the band was or the name of the song was. Now I know and it is still bitchin'.
My mom drank herself through my childhood through my teen years; never facing her demons. that bottle attached to her hip. My father worked him self like a dog; (as a carpenter with hard labor) to support my mom and I. My mom never worked a day. I grew up alone with her poisonous drunken words while my dad was breaking his bones to put food on the table. I grew up visiting the hospital many times for her detox sessions and her attempted suicide. I'm 21 and ihope to never be like them.
@ridinmy63 Dude, this song is sick in general! But yea I do agree and the drums really set the mood! I love it all. When I first heard this song tears welled up in my eyes...it's beautiful if only more people had such appreciation for this type of rock.
Does you maybe mean "Here's To Another", an other song of them. I searched for the lyric part and found this one. I hope you mean this song :) . Be blessed.
omg this song makes me cry everytime i listen to it... this song i can relate to I LOVE YOU mom.... and some advice 4 everyone if u dug a hole too deep stand up and find a way out..... this song is to u mom in a good way.. its been 2 years since ive seen you.... fix your self if u read this ♥♥♥ =*/
Reminds me of exactly what i say everyday, i dont want to be or act the way my mother and father do toward us children, its time to stop things that ruin families and stop them now!
you must be a great son....yo accept your mistakes but also you show that your not the only one with mistakes..... and you are right.... ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE US....so.....congratulations......you are honest ;)
My father died, and I actually wish I would have taken his advice. Parents trying to rule your life doesn't mean they want you to be like them and follow their dream, while not following your own. They want you to follow your own dreams. They want you to reach your goals and become ultimately happy. They want to be proud...
@SmexyPilar don't worry dude i feel ur pain..... ur not along not alone and neither is anyone else. I can never explain things to my father cuz he either neither takes anything seriously or just doesn't pay attention so its hard to express things and he understand sometimes but.... we don't like our parents or we hate how they do certain things till the day they die and after they die...we realize the certain things...
I thoroughly enjoy all the hate this band gets, a truly freaking awesome band always have their haters, now we know this band is awesome. And honestly the genre of the song is based by the listener, if one thinks it's emo, then it's emo, if another thinks it's grunge then it's grunge. Plain and simple
why do all you have to label stuff.... my god its just music!!!!!!!! who cares if its emo or not!!!!!! Look if you label something your putting limits and restraints on it in your mind why would you want to do that? i literally can no go anywhere on youtube without seeing comments saying is this emo is this goth no this is punk no it this or that... why do you guys care so much its music end of story
i wish i could still listin to this band but sadly my ipod somehow removed all my music and i got a new computer so i cant transfer ny purchases so for now i can only use youtube for my music this sucks.
@krisc12 "Grunge" this isnt grunge... Grunge Died with Kurt. R.I.P Kurt. No one or no band has been able to do grunge the way Nirvana did, so i must disagree and stick to believe what i said, grunge died with Kurt.
Love is such an invredible hard game to play.
Love is a long stony way to go...
I close my eyes and cry the shit out of my heart t this song. I lost my big first big love... and it hurts so much...

You were blessed to have caring parents. Some kids have parents who encourage them to go outside and play in the middle of uncoming traffic. Or rather they DON'T. The only chains are yours. The ones you imagine. You have freedom but no LOVING parent can just stand and watch their child put their finger in the electric socket.

This song is exactly how things are. My mom shields me from the world because shes afraid i'll meet the wrong influences and my dad works hard going around trying to be superman. Yet, we couldnt be further apart. Needing some friends who are going through this too..? thumbs this up and message me

@MrThecommunistcomrad Just was wondering if the words you wrote are from a song or from your thoughts? If it was about "this" song , I did not pick up on any religous stuff. I really like this song....and I was reading the comments. If you don't mind....plz. let me know what your comment means. Thank you....Oh, and btw....I do agree with your comment in the fact that no one should shove any crap down peoples throats, not just kids...right ?

I don't see, in the least bit, how this is anti religion. Religion isn't about forcing your children to be a specific way, or anything like that. It's about believing God, accepting Jesus, and trying to help others do the same. It's about putting your trust into fate. Religious people don't have to be controlling.

I liked it. I like how the song in general is not complex at all, but neither is it a completely sad song. My parents hardly ever listen to these genres of music I greatly appreciate, so I highly doubt they'd take this song as seriously as we seem to. But my mom would leak from her eyes worse than a faucet if she heard this, mostly because it's emoting a strong subject or several - failure, lack of parental acceptance and respect, etc.
-Thank you, @kaladien!

Yea, this does feel like my family story. My dad works nearly every day, and literally until he breaks. My mom always tells me to dress 'normal' so I won't get into fights. Both of them told me to be a christian, while I choose not to. Fights all over the place. Thank goth I'm moving out.
And the ending of this song: When I have kids, I won't put any chains on their wrists I want.. Cause Kids should be what they want to be. If they want something strange, I just want to hear their motivation.

This is just.. so true. I feel like this song really fits so many people's lives. Many people have parents who are afraid of life, and death, and work themselves too much. Who gave up long before they ever even tried. And I think this really shows how people are feeling about their parents.

My mom drank herself through my childhood through my teen years; never facing her demons. that bottle attached to her hip. My father worked him self like a dog; (as a carpenter with hard labor) to support my mom and I. My mom never worked a day. I grew up alone with her poisonous drunken words while my dad was breaking his bones to put food on the table. I grew up visiting the hospital many times for her detox sessions and her attempted suicide. I'm 21 and ihope to never be like them.

My father died, and I actually wish I would have taken his advice. Parents trying to rule your life doesn't mean they want you to be like them and follow their dream, while not following your own. They want you to follow your own dreams. They want you to reach your goals and become ultimately happy. They want to be proud...

I thoroughly enjoy all the hate this band gets, a truly freaking awesome band always have their haters, now we know this band is awesome. And honestly the genre of the song is based by the listener, if one thinks it's emo, then it's emo, if another thinks it's grunge then it's grunge. Plain and simple
